The Klein/Season 3 postseason saw a legendary (and first-ever) Championship Series faceoff between the Alewife Arsonists
and
Boylston Boogers
. The series was widely hyped across Boston (despite the fact that all the games would be blacked out for all local audiences) and it did not disappoint. The Boogers took an early edge and pushed hard. They were on the cusp of victory with a 3-2 edge. Then, in a momentous Game 6, the Boogers started to run Klein maneuvers - inside-out tricks that were not attacking Alewife's formations so much as appearing inside them. Disoriented and overrun, the Arsonists were narrowly defeated, 307-256, and lost the pennant.
The mysterious Brake Master Cylinder described it with cold fury: "The Boogers are not back in Wellesley. The Boogers are not at the gate. The Boogers are on the platform. They have stormed the Concrete Cathedral. They wormholed right through the station and reality itself." The series would become known as the Red Line Robbery.
